Here to read your blogpost as promised and you really do have your way with words. It's beautiful. I wish I could read some more.

But, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us this week. You know, I think the maturity from your name already reflected with your response to the first question. And I mean, saying you wouldn't change anything about your journey. That response is peak adulting and I'm glad you've done the internal work to stand firm on that opinion and accept that the past is the past because many people are still fixated on past mistakes that they haven't outgrown the strong wishes of going back in time to correct things. Well done.

I would ask them more about how they lived as women, what they felt in their relationships, what sustained them in difficult times. Because today, as an adult, I realize how valuable those stories are, the ones we don't always hear in time.

Honestly, I feel if our mothers spoke more about their experiences and we listened to them, we would have a guide to make better decisions. Right now, a lot of us are living through life alone because we didn't get to hear their true stories and how they managed it all. But I do hope that we can do more for the younger women coming after us.

Irene, I also wish you all the peace in the world and I hope you give yourself more grace to just "BE" when you think of demanding too much from yourself. Thank you for the closing advice. I'll keep at at the back of mind. Have a lovely week.🥰🌸
